At Costco, I took a photo of these for my husband because it was way too many chips for a bit. 😂
Colorful boxes labelled RAP SNACKS and they have Snoop Dogg’s face on them. The boxes say they contain containing individual bags of kettle cooked chips made with avocado oil. They are non GMO and gluten free! They come in 3 flavors. Sour cream cheddar and ranch. Maple bbq. And All In. All In is a concoction containing chips of various flavorings: salt and vinegar, cheddar, bbq, onion, garlic and the mysterious AND MORE flavor.

Forced to mercy-kill her sister, snarky Ice Guard Mye Su (19) must follow her tracks across this piss-ice arctic moon & use concealed disabilities to speak w/ sentient fungi, risking the human coalition's rejection, or they’ll all be a hot meal for a reawakened super predator. #DVPIT #DIS #A #NA #SF

Does ARCTIC RIFT MC Mye Su have wonky connective tissue, a hyper-sensitive nervous system, & energy crashes for overdoing it? Yes. Is she still a bad ass who can kill apex predators, keep her friends alive on their arctic moon’s tundra, & negotiate w/ sentient fungi? Also yes. #DVParty #DIS #SF

#Caturday mood. I want a big fluffy tail to curl around my nose while cuddle up in the comfy bed.
Close up photo of a fluffy brown and tan tabby cat with thick cream eye liner around his pale green eyes. His cream ear furnishings, hair inside his ears, are long and distinguished. He’s looking directly at you as his head rests on a fluffy blue blanket on a grey cat bed. The end of his fluffy tail is just touching his nose and conceals the lower left half of his face. His whiskers on both sides of his face are completely hidden, making him look like a magical forest creature.

Got this one from Wayfair a few years ago and it’s remained a hit. Very sturdy. The soft lounging areas come off and are machine washable. The litter box hider at the bottom is pretty great too. Even my big boy can fit inside.
Photo of a linving room with a patio door. In front of one side is a bookcase-like cat condo with a scratching post and a little “floating” box with a circular entrance and several  cozy places to loaf. No carpet. One cat is on the top and a second is on the shelf below. A third cat is off to the side, perching on the back of a chair. All 3 are looking into the backyard at birds.

Baby’s first cane! Recently learned I can’t take my hiking pole in my carry-on because of the ice tip under the rubber cap. So… Teal cane and little octopus friend. It’s actually way more comfortable than the pole, less vibrations up through my elbow. I’m very excited about it!

For #Caturday, Sploot will let you look at his glorious paw floof. But no touch! (Belly rubs are acceptable, however.)
A fluffy brown and cream tabby with striking light green eyes surrounded by cream markings, stares at you as he lounges comfortably on my lap. His long white whiskers accentuate his serious face. His back paw, which is white with a dark brown ankle, is held toward you and takes up a large portion of the photo. Very long tufts of white fur extend from his black toe beans. The same fluffy brown and cream tabby has laid back into an even more comfy lounge on my lap. All four paws are pointed toward you and the focus of the photo. They are all white with varying degrees of dark brown ankle except for one white ankle. Very long tufts of white fur extend from his black toe beans on his back paws. One front paw is slightly hidden. The other is angled so you cane see his fluffy toes but not his beans. It looks a bit like a fist, but he’s very relaxed and just holding it out for you to admire.The same fluffy brown and cream tabby has laid completely on his back on my lap. You can see his very fluffy cream belly. Only one back paw is visible. It has the longest dark brown ankle sock, so only his toes are white. Tufts of white fur extend from his black toe beans. His face and long whiskers are very relaxed. In fact, he’s so relaxed and turning into liquid-cat, after this photo was taken, he had a hard time righting himself and I had to pick him up and put him on his feet haha!

Afternoon snack: corn dipper chips and Trader Joe’s vegan tzatziki, so I don’t have to take a lactase. Stupid lack of lactose-processing enzymes 😒 I also just got this pesto sheep cheese and because it’s aged and sheep, I can also eat it with a lactase! Herbs are the baaa-mb! (I’ll see myself out 👋)

International Cat Day and Caturday? Here is Fidget being the babiest of babies. To cut his nails, we distract him with beef baby food. He grabbed the pouch and, well, baby!

Fidget didn’t like being held when we first got him. Now, he insists on being held like a baby and wants to be as close to my face as possible. This is maybe a little too close though, buddy. (His face is blurry because he also likes to wash and gently nibble my chin.) #Caturday #cats
A photo of a white woman’s face. She has short brown hair and is laying down. You can only see part of her face because a small black cat with white whiskers and paws is wrapped around her with his stomach against her jaw. His back paw is over her eye and his front paw is over part of her mouth and resting by her nose. His head is covering the other side of her mouth. His head is blurry because he’s washing her chin with his tongue and gently nibbling her chin—both signs of his affection.

Here’s a fun tail fact about Tinker. His has stronger muscles than the average cat. When he does happy tail up, it curves over his back (📸1). Sometimes even touches it! Annoyed tail looks like tail up (📸2). It’s never quite at the right height or angle for what he’s saying. Miscommunications abound!

Super happy tail will touch his back!A Siamese cat is seen walking in profile. He has a tan body with dark brown face, ears, paws/legs, and tail. His tail is up and slightly curved towards his back. In another cat, this would mean he’s happy. For him, this means he is annoyed because nobody is paying attention to him. He was just shouting and stomping around the countertop.

All those borrowed spoons finally caught up to me—which I do not have the time to replenish, but now have to make it. Even my skin hurts. Did not sleep last night because every position resulted in some sort of pain. Managed to fall asleep around 9am. And now…mushy brain. #fibromyalgia #ChronicPain

In addition to staring into the middle distance, Tinker prefers a “no thoughts, only blep” approach to solving that problem.

One of those weeks where a million things are poking my cPTSD/anxiety, fibromyalgia is fraying all my nerves, and I’m missing my little bestie, Pharnsworth 🌈, who would have tried to help me regulate through it all. My other cats are great, but not as emotionally intelligent or patient as he was. 💕🐾

Even though it’s #Caturday, Fidget was helping others all day. He pressed BIRD-FOOD on his button board to tell me the bird feeder was empty. (Didn’t talk about food again after I refilled it.) He also cuddled with me while I slept off a fibromyalgia flare. So did Sploot! Great catting today boys!

Caturday milestone! Fidget (tux) used 2 buttons in a novel way to say what he didn’t have words for. Sploot (tabby) did a VERY smelly poop. Fidget started to ask for snacks, stopped, then deliberately pressed POOP HUG. I.e. poop smell is hugging (surrounding?) us? He wasn’t wrong! 😂💀 #FluentPet

Another Caturday post! The fruits of my cat-nail harvest. All 3 cats trimmed. They were needles! The trick to trimming without incident is one person trims with the cat on their lap and another person uses a pouch of beef stew baby food as a lick treat. They only get it for nail trims. They line up!
My (a white lady) hand with a pile of clear-ish cat nail trimmings. Some are thick and many are tiny needle points you can barely see. It was past time for a trim, as the 4 plasters hidden on my body out of frame can attest to. 3 are from yesterday! Just cats being cats, not even trying to get me.

Haven’t done a Caturday post in a while. Life has gotten complicated. BUT we had our FIRST moment of all 3 cats in a cuddle puddle so I am taking the win! Sploot is always the social bridge for Tinker and Fidget, who plays too hard with the old man. See alt text for more details about their dynamic.
A black cat (Fidget), fluffy black/brown tabby cat (Sploot), and cream/brown Siamese-type cat (Tinker) are cuddled up on a fuzzy teal blanket on my oversized armchair in that order. Fidget is curled into a sleepy ball. Sploot is sprawled out and has his eyes closed after he did a wash. Tinker has his head bent, touching Sploot. They take up the whole chair seat. Tinker just left the warm cat bed on the arm of the chair to join the cuddle puddle, which is unheard of. He generally avoids Fidget because he plays too aggressively and targets old man Tinker. Tinker came to ask Sploot for face washes and stayed to return the favor before heading on his way. Fidget stayed curled up and didn’t harass anyone. What a win!!!

Remembering Pharnsworth on his gotcha day—first one without him. He was the best cat and such an emotional support. Always took care of me when my fibromyalgia flared. I miss him everyday, even a year later. When I whispered this to him, he’d purr and knead so hard: “Pharnsworth, Sarah, besties.” 🌈

Gave Fidget a “bird” button to talk about birds he sees outside. Instead, he uses it to ask for birds on cat TV videos. When we watch TV, he also presses it. I’m pretty sure he now thinks watching TV is just called birds. 😅 I’m rolling with it and calling the difference his birds and our birds. 🤷‍♀️
A small black cat sits on top of a speech button board, which sits beneath a TV. He is looking up at the TV and watching a video of blue jays and cardinals eating at a bird feeder.

Oh hey. It’s another shit show today. You already know all about it. So here’s a #Caturday post to give you a timeline cleanse: Sploot, a fluffy brown tabby, plays with his fav toy, a small, plastic, empty cat treat bag. He tosses it with glee, spinning in circles, and pounces it.

I hope it’s cool to ask here: do you have an anti-itch topical you like for cats? Taking Tinker to the vet tomorrow because the site of his ringworm infection from May looks infected again. 🤬 He’s been scratching at it and his head a lot the last 2 days. +
A very sad Siamese cat has a reddish, bald spot above his right eye and the eye is rimmed with red. The eye is also a little swollen and weepy.

Here they are again, where Fidget tries to put his head back in the tissue box and Sploot bats him away from it. He’s done with this nonsense haha!

For Caturday. Fidget can take the box off anytime, and will put it back on if I take it off and he isn’t done with his game of “box head.” Sploot doesn’t like this game and will sometimes even scruff him to get him to stop. “It’s dangerous and weird, brother!” (Alt text follows +)

This guy sang the song of his people until at least 3am last night. I’m not saying that was naughty, but bold move on Christmas Eve/Christmas. 👀 🥱😴
A closeup of a Siamese-ish cat being held by an arm in an orange hoodie. A green-lit Christmas tree is behind him. He is looking at you with big blue eyes. He knows he’s cute and can get away with anything.

Here’re Fidget and Sploot having fun doing our Christmas craft, AKA playing with paintbrushes—the best toys ever. Fidget is always stealing Sploot’s toys, so this is also classic cat sibling stuff haha! (Alt text next post) +
